    Can't disable WSL - error 0x80073701


    Hello,I'm deep into trying to resolve this and think I've just made things worse. I originally wanted to uninstall WSL because I was getting the above error when I tried to turn on the Hyper-V feature. After follow several sets of instructions, I uninstalled Linux Subsystem and Ubuntu from my box, was unable to turn off the WSL feature see above error. Poking around in system, I found a failed install tied to Docker. Docker wouldn't let me do anything, so I just delete Docker.I'm stuck!Thanks in advance for any help.

    :)

    Update error 0x80073701

    Running Window 11 Professional.

    I've tried several times, but the latest Windows 11 update
    (KB5014668) keeps failing with error 0x80073701.

    A web site suggested I try clean booting. I tried it. It didn't help.

    So I'm writing to ask if anyone has any suggestions to fix that
    inability to update error 0x80073701 .
